Hopefully they got "THE PENCILS DOWN!" guy or somebody similar! He was what made that task.
G.B.:
Hi! I might be late with this week's episode. If someone could help me out and get the Detour names and Roadblock prompts transliterated here ahead of time, I would really, really appreciate it! Thanks!

If a team needs to be saved 2 legs in a row, maybe it's best to get rid of them :groan:
Can't see this team going much farther.

What a great leg. Most tasks as mentioned are repurposed with some alteration, but they work. Loved having teams at the same challenges, placement shifting around and more than one team attempting the FF.
>>Tar 5 Leg 4 Drink one shot detour
Was 1st Route Info
>>Tar 13 Leg 9 Flour transport roadblock
Adapted into a harder Route Info, instead of fifty 25kg bags of flour, they were asked to carry twenty 50kg bags of flour. Fewer bags, but the load way heavier. FF team struggle a lot in this.
It's interesting that the making off segment tell us later on, that because girls were struggling during test run, so they reduced the bag count from 30 to 20.
>>Tar 17 Leg 7 The Circus detour
It only looked like the Circus Clown detour, but it wasn't. The plate thing was only a component of a two part Fast Forward. The plate (singular) is part one, being similar only in the sense that they must not let that drop, with the part 2 being an aerial routine.
>>Tar 21 Leg 7 Syncing steps detour
>>Tar 21 Leg 8 Russian Break-dance detour
Yup, even the same songs were used, and I think were both the same routine.
>>The Russian Timezone roadblock from tar 21 leg 8 will return as well
I think it was the same "Pencils Down" guy back there, but sadly he doesn't say "Pencils Down", he starts and finish every round in Russian. But I get the impression, it was slightly simplified, compared to the original US version. Some racers did struggle at it, but not as much US racers.
I like the way how the EP was used in this leg. It didn't get them the win (that be hard with a FF in the leg), but I think that it was a sound strategic move.
Maanca:
So next is Barcelona, Spain. Did you see any previous tasks there? :)
